DNP Project Practicum

Catalog description

This leadership practicum courses provide for the development of a population health leader as demonstrated through the DNP project. The student will conduct an assessment of a population, community and/or organization where evidenc- based leadership activities may be employed. Once a problem or issue is identified in the practice setting, the student will develop an evidence-based project designed to positively impact population- specific and/or patient care outcomes. After approval of the DNP project proposal, the student will implement an evidence-based project designed to positively impact population health and/or patient/client care outcomes. The culmination of the DNP project is evaluation and dissemination of the evidence-based changes. May be repeated up to 9 credits.
